I started piping in 1993 with the Macalester College Pipe Band in St. Paul, MN. After relocating
to Bemidji in 1999 I formed the 1st City Pipe Band, which eventually dissolved in 2005, and simultaneously assisted
the Fort Frances Highlanders in Ontario, Canada. These days I am back touring and competeing with Macalester's
G3 Band under PM Mike Breidenbach.

Over the course of my piping endeavor I have received instruction
from some of the most reknown solo pipers in the world including Alasdair Gillies, James McIntosh, John Cairns, and
Jake Watson. I have played at numerous private functions and public events throughout MN, ND and NW Ontario. I
have also performed with many local and head-line bands such as Celtic Crossing, Ceilidh, Seven Nations, Wookie
Foot, Rod Stewart and in February 2010 I was invited to play with the foremost Irish Folk band in the world; The
Chieftains. Venues I have performed at include the Chief Theater, Exel Center in St. Paul and Orchestra Hall in
Minneapolis, MN. In 2005 I was the musical guest for a Suzanne Somers family gatheringand in 2006 I was honored to send off the US Mens & Womens Olympic Curling Team to the Olympics in
Torin, Italy.

Brian performed
recently for our family during a memorial service for our Mother. The absolute professionalism and quality displayed were
outstanding! The bagpipes brought a chill to everyone in attendance. The emotional impact created by his amazing talent and
bagpipe will never be forgotten…it truly was a major impact on what we believe was the best send off that we could
have provided for Mother. ~ The
